What Kind of Moth? - Catocala epione
Lake Monticello, Fluvanna County, Virginia, USA
June 20, 2011
Size: at least 1.5 inches
This moth was in various pots on my deck. Saw it once when it had wings spread and it had black in the middle with a white band at the bottom which you can slightly see in this photo. This is with natural lighting at 10 AM in the morning.
